Is Judaism Pro-choice?

There are some out there arguing that abortion is a religious right in Judaism (such as the woman in https://youtu.be/BaAxnEjk1OA?si=QHZ4D0VqBE4d3h0H), but that's not the case. Ben Shapiro explains.

Even if abortion were a religious right in some religions (pagan ones) it's equivalent to child sacrifice on the altar of convenience. It is contrary to the Tanakh.

Genesis 9:6 (KJV) - Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.

Deuteronomy 12:31 (KJV) - Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.

2 Kings 16:3 (KJV) - But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

2 Kings 17:17 (KJV) - And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.

Edit isn't mine. Credits to the original editor. I found this online.
